2:17 am

periwinkle

2:17 am

2:17 am

sprite

oh I found a K7! *amazed at self*

2:18 am

jillibus

sprite -- great icon and comment :)

2:18 am

sprite

thanks jilli!

2:19 am

jillibus

and I found that ke7 too! Amazing what taking a break can achieve.

2:19 am

periwinkle

I don't have the ke7 :(

2:20 am

sprite

wonderful jilli!
I greyed out the K. I must have slept very very well this night, grin.

2:20 am

periwinkle

NM found the ke7

2:20 am

periwinkle

yay sprite

2:20 am

periwinkle

still missing 2 of the k

2:20 am

jillibus

my goodness, sprite! Did you monkey them or remember them or what?

2:20 am

sprite

lol periwinkle in true form :)

2:21 am

jillibus

haha peri!

2:21 am

lynxxx

hi Sprite

2:21 am

sprite

most I remembered, jilli. One I found by mistyping another one and getting two letters mixed up. The rest I monkeyed.

2:22 am

sprite

hi lyn :)

2:22 am

jillibus

your monkeys are much smarter than mine

2:23 am

sprite

I must confess I force my monkeys to learn K-words, every day, 10 minutes before they get milk, banana and sleep ;)

2:25 am

jillibus

LOL!

2:26 am

sprite

oh jilli, talking about animals... Do you know the treatment they call Tellington TTouch?

2:26 am

periwinkle

going back to bed

2:26 am

rabbasar

Can anyon explain why babble accepts 'turk' but not 'turkish'?

2:28 am

jOCa

It knows not of delight.

2:28 am

lynxxx

a turk is also describes a cocky young man

2:28 am

sprite

because tu4 can be used without a capital in some meanings, and tu4ish always refers to the country and is capitalised.

2:29 am

Haz1558

Because it has more than one meaning - it is a proper noun, but also a description of a cocky man. It's the same as it accepting tu6 - a country, but also a type of poultry.

2:29 am

Haz1558

Good morning/evening all.

2:29 am

sprite

morning Haz

2:29 am

lynxxx

hi Haz

2:30 am

jillibus

Tellinton Touch? No -- what is it?

2:31 am

jillibus

Hi Haz

2:31 am

jillibus

*Tellington

2:31 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxx, sprite, jillibus.

2:32 am

sprite

if I can swing it, it will be my new occupation once I am better. It is a way of massaging animals, that balances the .... oh dear, word... nerval system?

2:32 am

sprite

*grabs dictionary*

2:32 am

Haz1558

Nervous

2:32 am

sprite

nervous system

2:33 am

sprite

thanks Haz, you were faster than me and my dictionary

2:33 am

jillibus

Oh, I have heard of massaging animals, yes.

2:33 am

sprite

it is used to train animals, but also to help them heal from abuse, trauma, operations, etc.

2:33 am

jillibus

It sounds niiiice!

2:35 am

Haz1558

Will Terra be a willing traning helper?

2:36 am

sprite

it is, and the results are spectacular. I already entered Terra and myself into a basic workshop. If I can get the invalidity benefit organisation to agree, I might be able to do the whole... education? Official training? School?

2:36 am

Haz1558

Sometimes we just use the word 'course' to cover the same idea.

2:37 am

sprite

oh yes, Haz, he already is. The funny thing is, I 've known about TTouch for a long time and always thought, oh, if I could do it al over... and a couple of days ago it clicked. Why not now?

2:38 am

sprite

ok, thank you. The official course is much more intensive than the workshop I am going to do now, but I thought something simple would be a great start.

2:38 am

Haz1558

Would you be able to do the training locally?

2:40 am

sprite

found out yesterday that there is a training in the netherlands now. Far from where I live, if anything in the netherlands can be called far away, but it happens the mother of a friend of mine lives in that very town.

2:40 am

jillibus

Sounds like a great idea -- maybe it would work for people too?

2:40 am

Haz1558

It would be useful to have someone to stay with, that's for sure.

2:41 am

sprite

it does, jilli, even though it was developed for animals. But it is not surprising, in the end we are animals too.

2:41 am

jillibus

phantom -- lariat

2:41 am

jillibus

Well, that's what I was thinking.

2:42 am

jillibus

I have 50 left so now I can go to bed. Busy day tomorrow.

2:42 am

sprite

the first year will be 3 days in school every month, the rest you get to do at home. The 2nd year will be a couple of intensive training weeks of 6 days, and again the rest at home.

2:42 am

sprite

bye jilli, sleep well!

2:43 am

Haz1558

Goodnight, jillibus, sleep well.

2:43 am

lynxxx

bye Jilli

2:43 am

jillibus

Sprite, that sounds just perfect for you.

2:43 am

sprite

I really feel that way! Am so excited :)

2:44 am

Haz1558

It leaves you time for babble. That's a plus.

2:44 am

jillibus

Goodnight all -- happy babbling!
*poof*

2:44 am

sprite

not just a plus. It is a conditio sine qua non.

2:45 am

sprite

what is that in english? A hard condition?

2:45 am

Haz1558

Either non-negotiable or is 'a given'.

2:46 am

sprite

thank you!

2:46 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

2:47 am

sprite

courses will be given in english. And some in german.

2:47 am

Haz1558

No matter how hard they try, the German course will sound much harsher. It's just the nature of the language.

2:48 am

sprite

oh yes. I think Dutch sounds pretty harsh to english ears as well.

2:49 am

Haz1558

Maybe a tad, but German always amuses me, it's impossible to make it sound soft and cuddly.

2:50 am

sprite

unless you hear what the Ostrians do with it... from them it sounds like singing.

2:51 am

Haz1558

Oh, I haven't heard them.

2:51 am

Haz1558

Or do you mean Austrians?

2:51 am

sprite

let me check

2:52 am

sprite

yep, Austrians. Sorry.

2:52 am

Haz1558

If it's Austrians, then I do know what you mean - we had an Austrian language assistant at university and he was decidedly sing-song in his intonation.

2:53 am

sprite

guess I was making them into big birds with that spelling

2:53 am

rururocks

Ostrians stick their heads in the sand

2:53 am

sprite

hiya ruru :)

2:53 am

lynxxx

how do the dutch spell Austria? and Australia if it comes to that?

2:54 am

Haz1558

German rendition is Osterreich (with an umlaut over the o)

2:54 am

sprite

Australia is AustraliÃ«. Austria is Oostenrijk.

2:54 am

Haz1558

Hello to you, ruru.

2:54 am

rururocks

hi haz and sprite and lynxx I have already said hi to

2:55 am

lynxxx

Oostenrijk looks lovely, better than Austria

2:56 am

sprite

The realm in the East, it means literally.

2:58 am

lynxxx

There is going to be a new series of Torchwood! (sadly in a year)

2:59 am

sprite

oh! And then it will take at least an extra year before it reaches us.

2:59 am

Haz1558

They probably have to save up to pay John Barrowman's wages.

3:00 am

lynxxx

In conjunction with a US cable company, guess that's where his extra money is coming from

3:01 am

Haz1558

I've never seen the programme, just know that it has a devoted following.

3:01 am

sprite

the dialogues are brilliant

3:03 am

lynxxx

It's more the personalities than the Dr Who action but is very good

3:05 am

lynxxx

BBL we are having a best of Dr Who weekend and I haven't seen this one

3:06 am

sprite

enjoy lyn!

3:06 am

Haz1558

See you later, lynxxx. Sometime we should set up a Dr Who quiz to establish who is the greatest Who fan. FM will fight you to the death!

3:07 am

sprite

would love that to be in babble chat. I will come and watch.

3:07 am

Haz1558

We'd get ruru to keep score.

3:09 am

sprite

that would make for interesting reasonings and comments

3:09 am

herinfernallady

hello

3:10 am

sprite

hi lady! *takes off hat* Congratulations again!

3:10 am

Haz1558

I'd just have to be a spectator, they could ask anything and any answer would sound reasonable.

3:10 am

Haz1558

Hello, herin.

3:10 am

sprite

same for me, all I know is the original Dr Who.

3:10 am

herinfernallady

waves hello

3:11 am

Haz1558

As in William Hartnell?

3:13 am

3:23 am

rubyfoo

Fortunately, DH is letting me borrow his.

3:23 am

Hangnails need a long recovery time.

3:23 am

sprite

what's ailing him?

3:24 am

Atalante

they do. very much so. he did say he'd come walking with us, but I doubt it somehow now!

3:24 am

rubyfoo

I don't mind real mice, it's only the computer one which is a bother!

3:24 am

sprite

so... you can walk the dog with your brace, but he cannot with a hangnail? Notice me not saying anything.

3:24 am

rubyfoo

Those darn hangnails, ata!

3:25 am

Atalante

lolol I know!! so typical

3:25 am

rubyfoo

I'm dealing with a husband who is sulkyg because I'm caught up in watching the World Cup, rooting against France, naturally lol

3:25 am

rubyfoo

I'll jump in for a minute, but he'll probably ask for his mouse back!

3:26 am

sprite

rubyfoo, open my profile for a picture of your mouse

3:27 am

rubyfoo

for sure, sprite, especially after I get through with it!

3:28 am

sprite

hehehe. Oh and your hubby cannot get his mouse back until you are done using it.

3:28 am

Tell the Hubby that the World Cup is important and to hush

3:30 am

rubyfoo

just wait 'til the Worl Cup and the Tour de France overlap; he'll go crazy!

3:31 am

herinfernallady

Sprite Question

3:32 am

sprite

lady: answer

3:32 am

herinfernallady

Are you aware of the NL Supermarket World Trinkets?

3:32 am

sprite

bafana? shabalal?

3:33 am

sprite

all those cup related gifts you mean? Like the little beasties and the waving hands etc?

3:33 am

herinfernallady

? They are apparently something the supermarkets have for the Worl CUp in NL

3:34 am

sprite

oh yes, pretty normal here during cups.

3:34 am

rubyfoo

bafana is the name of the SA team and Shabalala was the striker who got the SA goal. It was a thing of beautify. And DH isn't interested, he only plays the remote!

3:35 am

sprite

lady, try this one:
http://www.ah.nl/beesie

3:35 am

herinfernallady

I was just wondering if you could contact MonkeyGames if you happen across any for her dear little boy Walter

3:36 am

sprite

I am pretty certain Walter already has a whole load of those, and others.

3:37 am

rubyfoo

must run, but will see you later if DH lets me keep using his mouse!

3:37 am

Haz1558

Bye, ruby.

3:39 am

herinfernallady

I'm delighted to be back

3:42 am

herinfernallady

Sprite the same thing happened to me in primary school twice. First it was my fathers very rare medal from one of the English Football clubs and next it was my pencils (expensive present) and the person that took my pencils said it wasn't them but the teeth marks at the end proved otherwise

3:43 am

Haz1558

You don't realise how much you use internet until it's gone.

3:43 am

PinnyPoppins

We've been going mad chez Pinny

3:44 am

sprite

those are rotten things to happen to a child, lady :(

3:45 am

herinfernallady

My dad was not impressed. I think we were doing something at school on football and were assured that it would be safe

3:46 am

sprite

as it should have been

3:48 am

herinfernallady

How hot is it down there, kje?

8:11 am

kje

hot

8:11 am

kje

not sure of the temp right now, but when i got up at 0500 it was already too warm to enjoy sitting poutside

8:12 am

kje

LOL

8:12 am

kje

outside

8:12 am

kje

poutside may be a useful word though

8:12 am

kje

maybe a freudian slip

8:12 am

Scrabbler

It is VERY humid here. When I got up an hour ago the windows were steamed up.

8:12 am

Scrabbler

How is your mother doing?

8:13 am

kje

my mom is doing well - still more tired than she would like, but I think less than a month post-op at 80 that is to be expected

8:13 am

kje

she does not like that answer, btw

8:14 am

Scrabbler

Good for her.

8:14 am

Scrabbler

Her feisty attitude is great.

8:15 am

herinfernallady

hEy hey

8:15 am

she has no other sx, they removed all the intraabdominal masses they found, so she prob has 9-12 months, I would guess

I am waiting for garage door repairman to arrive--sometime between 9-12.

Is lung mass enlarging?

8:16 am

kje

how is the mood, herin?

8:16 am

kje

she had the lung surgery just over a year ago, and there is no mass there anymore... there are a few cm size nodes, however

8:17 am

KatieMcG

afternoon everyone

8:17 am

I expect sx will be GI vs lung, but we shall see - thankfully she has been really assymptomatic except fatigue

8:17 am

Nancy Boy

he just came straight out with it and told me! said he had to get it off his chest. well, I'm glad he feels better...

8:34 am

hydra

I'm so, so sorry. Like Scrabbler said, do you have sme place else to go?

8:35 am

m9f9l

wow. Totally sucks.. but better than you finding out. I think.

8:35 am

m9f9l

long time.. or one time drunk?

8:35 am

hydra

It was quite brave of him to confess...

8:36 am

CiociaJudy

Come over to the states NB--we.ll take care of you

8:36 am

Nancy Boy

No, nowhere to go. I'm with friends at the moment but obviously, I don't have family anymore, so...arrrgh, what a mess.

8:37 am

Nancy Boy

(((Judy))) :)
I don't know, Hydra, I feel pathetic, but I wish he hadn't told me. I really wish I didn't kn ow.

8:37 am

hydra

My heart goes out to you. Here is a big cyber ((((((hug)))))

8:37 am

herinfernallady

Nancy so to sound naive but surely now your parents shouldn't turn their backs on you. Confused but that is ok

8:38 am

Scrabbler

NB, I would let you move in here if you lived in the States.

8:39 am

Nancy Boy

thanks, ((((Hydra)))) - I need as many of those as I can get these days ;)
And I dunno, Herin. They told the extended family I was dead. I don't think they're gonna resurrect me because of this; it's probably karma working out in their world.

8:40 am

hydra

It's their loss, Nancy. I'd be proud of you if you were mine.

8:40 am

m9f9l

they what?!?!? Someone would do that to their child?

8:41 am

Nancy Boy

And M9...he says it was a one-time thing. So that's something, I guess

8:41 am

Joanne123

it's sad but it's a culture thing..so sorry for u nb

8:42 am

hydra

Do you feel you could give him another chance, Nancy?

8:42 am

Anniebrook

my daughter had a friend in law school who had a hip operation which left her with a slight limp and her family told her she was damaged and would not make a suitable marriage. They are Korean.

8:43 am

Sally-catlover

Hi NB and all. Just a thought, but I think you said when you met Leo he was with a girl and you turned him. Is it possible that he had a bit to drink, was a bit curious and bitterly regrets it now?

8:43 am

Nancy Boy

thanks, Joanne :)
And Annie, that's awful! That poor, poor girl...

8:43 am

wildcat17

(((((NB))))) I'm so sorry

8:43 am

herinfernallady

NB I gather that time heals all wounds with parents and I feel that it may be harder for them given that who you are is not in their cultural scope.

8:43 am

Scrabbler

Uh, oh, the garage repairman just called and is on his way. I must change out of pajamas lest I send the wrong message to him.

8:43 am

herinfernallady

Nah Scrabbler give him a thrill

8:43 am

Nancy Boy

Oh Scrabbs. Thank you for making me laugh :)

8:44 am

Scrabbler

No way, herin. My girls must get harnessed up.

8:44 am

NonnieLight

Nancy, is he truly remorseful? If so and you still love him, maybe forgiveness (even though your feelings are still raw) is the right thing. We all make mistakes. I'm not saying we all cheat but we all make mistakes of some sort or another and I believe the truly repentent deserve a second chance. That is if they haven't totally destroyed everything they once had.

8:44 am

NonoNanette

lol scrabs I'm sure he has come upon worse than pajama clad women

8:44 am

Sally-catlover

Perhaps you'll get the repair cheaper, Scrabbler.

8:44 am

hydra

Must go, but be strong, Nancy. If it's real true love, it'll turn out all right x

8:44 am

Scrabbler

Or for free, Sally?

8:44 am

herinfernallady

snort Scrabs

8:45 am

Sally-catlover

Depends on the pyjamas :-)

8:45 am

Sally-catlover

Bother, must go. Back later.

8:45 am

Nancy Boy

Thanks, Hydra :) take care xx
And Nonnie, he was...very. I almost ended up feeling sorry for him. He was crying before I was.

8:45 am

Scrabbler

BBL, friends. NB, reach out to your support system to find a solution.

8:46 am

NonnieLight

bye bye scrabbs

8:46 am

herinfernallady

NB my gay friends dad declared him gone and so did his mum but in the end his mum come out of it. Realised it was better to have someone true to themselves or have them living a lie

8:47 am

Nancy Boy

Take care, Scrabbs. I'm so glad I have this place!

8:47 am

Joanne123

i have a daughter that has done some things that i nor she should be very proud of..she don't know i know some of them and a son whom never does anything productive but i still will do anything for them because that is unconditional love for your kids but some cultures don't see it that way

8:47 am

NonnieLight

Well, Nancy...time will help. I hope it works out whichever way is best for YOU.

8:48 am

Joanne123

8:49 am

Joanne123

care share and hope to make you feel somewhat better

8:49 am

NonnieLight

Good gracious...a limp is damaged goods? With that way of thinking was all should be sent to the curb with the rest of the garbage.

8:50 am

SeaSpray

sometimes friends are more understanding and less judegmental

8:50 am

Nancy Boy

You are right there, Peri :) what I lost out on with my own family, I inherited twice over here!

8:50 am

Joanne123

some people have very demented minds

8:51 am

m9f9l

I remember when my highschool pal was living with us and told her parents she was gay. Her mom kept sending her "get well" cards....

8:51 am

Joanne123

weird how they were raised to believe in something perfect..

8:52 am

Joanne123

see that's weird m9

8:52 am

Nancy Boy

wow, M9! Goes to show, I guess...

8:52 am

Joanne123

8:52 am

SeaSpray

sciencegeek

how sad!

8:52 am

NonnieLight

Sadly sad, m9.

8:52 am

Anniebrook

nonnie, I was shocked when my daughter told me about her friend's parents attitude about her slight slight limp. I couldnt imagine it. My son has Down Syndrome and he is a wonderful person and lives with me.

8:53 am

Anniebrook

Can you imagine what they would have done with him? Nonnie

8:53 am

sciencegeek

I had a sister with Down's. My dad could never accept her.

8:54 am

m9f9l

We would joke about how she should change her last name to blank blankety's daughter

8:54 am

Joanne123

that's great annie.. we don't choose how we come out, we just make the best of it

8:54 am

Anniebrook

sg, what happened to your sister?

8:54 am

m9f9l

well for ages girl babies were left to die....

8:54 am

sciencegeek

She passed away at the age of 22. She had congestive heart failure.

8:54 am

Nancy Boy

oh Science, how upsetting :(

8:54 am

Joanne123

ohh science that's sad

8:55 am

8:55 am

m9f9l

and don't EVEN get me started on how children are treated in general.....

8:55 am

sciencegeek

Yes. This happened in 1994

8:55 am

herinfernallady

I learnt years ago if you didn't like me for who I was you could go get stuffed as I wasn't changing fo rno one

8:55 am

m9f9l

Science, I'm sorry.

8:55 am

NonnieLight

Each and everyone of us has something different from the other. Isn't that what makes us unique and wonderful? Some cheat themselves out of the most wonderful relationships because they can't accept differences. My daughter has a deformed ear. She was teased in jr high...she never knew it was "different" until someone pointed it out to her.

8:55 am

herinfernallady

Science :(

8:56 am

sciencegeek

Children are cruel

8:56 am

Anniebrook

uhoh, getting that message again "word could not be added"

8:56 am

NonnieLight

Science, that is so sad.

8:56 am

Anniebrook

8:57 am

herinfernallady

Annie ignore the grid:D

8:57 am

8:57 am

NonnieLight

8:57 am

m9f9l

8:59 am

herinfernallady

WHEN MY BROTHER WAS IN KINDERGARTEN, he couldn't stop talking about how cool and funny his best friend Jeremy is. When we met him, we saw he was in a wheelchair. . . On the way home we asked my brother why he never told us that Jeremy was in a wheelchair. He simply said, "Because it isn't important."

8:59 am

herinfernallady

9:01 am

welki

'morning folks (when one of my kids was young, maybe 5 years old, we were at the beach and some bonehead adult called her 'fat'' .... she just looked up and said, Ã³h yeah? well i can go on a diet but you'll always be an as%%hole" --- now where'd she get THAT from?!)

9:01 am

herinfernallady

True. My mum says I would be great to work in advocacy with people with needs as I usually am the kind of person that doesn't stare. My friends brother is high needs Autistic and he came down the stars bare arsed nakid and everyone not family was embarrassed I just said ''You need ot go to your room and put pants on please''

9:03 am

herinfernallady

O Welki. I had fire red hair at one stage and this little girl said ''Mummy her hair is bright red'' and all the mum did was smile and say ''Yes it is''. Most adults I met at that time were just rude

9:03 am

m9f9l

my son babysat every Friday for a couple to go on date night. They had 4 children, 3 on autism spectrum and the one very autistic. They were SO happy to have a sitter that wasn't wierded out by it all.

9:04 am

9:04 am

herinfernallady

Far as I am concerned these are the truths in life: we all get old.

Annie - I took a layoff!

9:05 am

herinfernallady

Science did you run away?

9:05 am

welki

m, if we went back far enough, i think we'd find we're ALL related

9:05 am

NonnieLight

That reminds me of the young man who was having words with my husband. My husband was angry with him for parking in our drive with his music blaring at 2 in the morning. The young man was asked to move and of course he got nasty with my husband. He told my husband that when he finishes HIS education HE won't be living is a small town like ours. He will be a millionaire by the time HE is our age! My husband said, that may be but all your money won't save you from being an idiot!

9:05 am

sciencegeek

yes! ran away like characters in the Holy Grail running from the killer rabbit

9:05 am

herinfernallady

I think Science did it just so she could be more awesome crafty

9:05 am

Anniebrook

husband arranged to watch soccer match with former student. not here... at a bar. i said oh, too bad, i would have watched it with you. but because he was going to be gone in the afternoon for this, i waited til then to start working out. so then i'm working out, drenched with sweat, he calls up to say the bar isn't showing the game or something and can they come back to the house (and i TOLD him the whole exercise plan before he left, too)

3:04 pm

EspritdJean

NB problems with Leo?

3:05 pm

hurshy

i said NO you can't come back to the house i'm in the middle of exercising, i'm a complete mess

3:06 pm

Nancy Boy

not so much problems with Leo, but problems with the guy Leo's been hooking up with behind my back.
I need to go to bed...

3:06 pm

Minski

isn't there another bar they can find? around here just about every bar has several tvs on and they will put on whatever you ask pretty much.

3:06 pm

EspritdJean

what!

3:07 pm

hurshy

yes, after i said that was a terrible idea he said they would find somewhere else to go

3:07 pm

hurshy

so sorry to hear this, NB.

3:07 pm

Minski

So sorry NB. HUGS>

3:07 pm

EspritdJean

how did you find out?

3:09 pm

Dorens

hi, sorry to hear that nb. but (having had similar experience), I'd say that the problem IS with leo, not the other party. It is Leo with whom you have an understanding, or had

3:09 pm

Dorens

hi, sorry to hear that nb. but (having had similar experience), I'd say that the problem IS with leo, not the other party. It is Leo with whom you have an understanding, or had.

3:09 pm

Dorens

apologies here... severe lag all of a sudden

3:10 pm

Nancy Boy

he told me, Esprit. Now I have no family, love, or home. fml.

3:10 pm

EspritdJean

you moved out?

3:11 pm

Nancy Boy

sorry, I keep having little ranting moments. Alternating between cripplingly depressed and mind-blowingly angry :/

3:11 pm

Dorens

better days are ahead, nancy boy. you just can't see it now... and i'm sure there will be a place for you somewhere. (but you do have right to be angry)

3:11 pm

hurshy

didn't you like, JUST move in together not very long ago?

3:11 pm

EspritdJean

is this other person someone he now wants to be with or was just a fling (not that he is excused)

3:12 pm

Soodle

I second everything Dorens has said.

3:13 pm

Nancy Boy

Yep, Hurshy. Six months ago. Apparently it was just a fling - like, a single night - but I don't know what to do. I'm staying with a friend at the moment...the flat is too small to share with someone I can't even look at right now.

3:14 pm

EspritdJean

definitely give yourself some space

3:14 pm

CadFan

And I third all that Dorens has said.

3:14 pm

EspritdJean

he told you because he felt guilty I take it?

3:14 pm

hurshy

six months is awfully soon for attention to wander whether it is a fling or otherwise. extremely worrying.

3:15 pm

Dorens

you are certainly better off without him if he's capable of such treachery, and best to know that now, yes?

3:15 pm

Nancy Boy

that's right, Esprit. Apparently he couldn't live with it any longer. Had to get it off his chest. Well I'm glad he feels better.

3:15 pm

Soodle

Betrayal is so very hurtful, whether after 6 months, 6 years, or 20 years.

3:16 pm

EspritdJean

give yourself time to process it and have your space from him

3:16 pm

Boobear

Jellen i am not getting your sh 6 clue

3:16 pm

EspritdJean

it's too raw right now

3:17 pm

EspritdJean

boobear if the vowels were arranged differently it would be a word for scream

3:17 pm

Dorens

it really does take time nancy boy. Ken broke up with me april 15th - and had my replacement right ready... he had obviously met this woman while we were together. I still want to rip his head off!

3:19 pm

rururocks

*now wishes Dorens hit ken's cellar a littler harder*

3:19 pm

EspritdJean

maybe it's over and maybe it's not ovr, only you can decide that NB

3:19 pm

Soodle

I dont mean to be morbid, but my husband of 20 years skedaddled without any notice 3 years ago, and to this day, i

3:20 pm

EspritdJean

my son and his gf of 5+ years broke up and a year and half later got back together, now getting married in November

3:20 pm

Dorens

me too, ruru. He actually offered something to me, and I said no thanks, but i'd rather have a couple of those 82 burgundies. He said you can have them anyway. (but they still haven't turned up on my doorstep) think i should go pick them out myself?

3:20 pm

EspritdJean

only you can sort this out NB

3:20 pm

Minski

Too bad he turned out to be a jerk NB because if I recall from the pics you had posted he's really cute!

3:20 pm

Nancy Boy

Dorens, I'm sorry to hear that :( I just need to know whether it was just a drunk thing or whether it meant something. But...he works with this guy! He sees him every day. All his co-workers will know. It just makes me feel sick every time I think about it.

3:20 pm

Soodle

hic - I want to rip his innards out, and paste them against the 4 walls!!

3:21 pm

Jellen

So sorry, Dorens...I didn't know about Ken...

3:21 pm

Dorens

nb, it really doesn't matter, does it? He is a jerk for doing it, do you want to be with this jerk? I don't think so.

3:21 pm

rururocks

i'll help you pick out some good ones Dorens

3:21 pm

Dorens

thanks jell. I'm sorrier about Tim, though Jellen... all good thoughts to you

3:22 pm

hurshy

apropos of nothing, what's the 8 start with?

3:22 pm

Jellen

sa 8/40

3:22 pm

Dorens

ruru, the beaucastel and the gruaud larose are winners, don't you think? but i wouldn't mind the halfbottles of haut brion.. if i'm drinking alone, that's all i need... sa8, hursh

3:23 pm

rururocks

what's up with Tim? Is he okay?

3:23 pm

EspritdJean

sometimes a person DOES make a mistake, doesn't mean he or she is a Turd for All Time does it?

3:23 pm

Nancy Boy

I do though! that's the stupid thing, I still love him to pieces.

3:24 pm

hurshy

is the sa8 weird or normal?

3:24 pm

Dorens

time for a lesson in self-esteem, nancy boy. you're adorable and bright and sweet... you can do better,.. and you deserve someone who cares about you

3:24 pm

EspritdJean

I can see I'm outnumbered here

3:24 pm

Dorens

hurshy, it is perfeectly normal for a brit

Hi, peri

3:25 pm

Dorens

actually jean,, i do believe in forgiveness and occasional mistakes... but so soon after moving in, and with someone he works with, it seems pretty rotten hi peri

3:25 pm

periwinkle

So sorry Dorens, did not know about Ken

3:25 pm

hurshy

as a mistake-maker myself, i'd have to say that i continue to FEEL like a Turd for All Time...

3:25 pm

jmbdobie2

okay ... how can they have all those welsh words and not have selkie?

3:26 pm

Dorens

thanks peri... that's the end of sanibel, i'm afraid... you'll have to find another way to get there

Hi, kje

3:27 pm

Dorens

hi kj

3:27 pm

I agree with you, Esprit...but I agree with Dorens. I mean, six months after I give up an entire family and a university place?

3:27 pm

periwinkle

rats and I was so looking to going to Sanibel and meeting you. but we can arrange something then Dorens. now that I have a new car I can drive to you or we could meet half way. Owl could come too, what do you think.?

3:28 pm

hurshy

it's not exactly the seven year itch...

3:28 pm

kje

dorens... I will rip his head off for you

3:28 pm

Dorens

sure thing... after june 23rd i'll have all the time in the world

3:28 pm

kje

sorry - but cheating is the one thing that I just won't tolerate - many things are forgivable, but that is beyond the pale... if you want out, say so, but don't have an affair

3:28 pm

Minski

Gotta go accomplish somehting for now. BBL8R.

3:29 pm

EspritdJean

I didn't know that part NB

3:29 pm

periwinkle

ok, Dorens

3:29 pm

Nancy Boy

well, apparently he doesn't want out. when he was telling me he was so upset about it I nearly felt sorry for him.

3:29 pm

Dorens

what ken did was really stinky. i think he wanted out.. which is ok, cause we weren't really the best match (he didn't like to talk... golf and wine were his main passions) but he lined up the replacement first and that really stunk. + it was right after i found out for sure that i'd lose my job

3:30 pm

EspritdJean

some THINK they want out but find out the grass is not greener

3:30 pm

periwinkle

71 words left and I have not entered a one since I just got back from lunch and shopping

3:30 pm

well, i need to go now.... best of luck in muddling this through nb! later, all

3:30 pm

periwinkle

that is stinky, Dorens, I will hit him in the head for you too!!

3:31 pm

Nancy Boy

thanks, Dorens :)

3:31 pm

kje

I don't believe those things "just happen"... at minimum, you have allowed yourself to get in a position that had a high likelihood of ending in sex

3:31 pm

periwinkle

Ouch, did not know that you will lose your job for sure, Dorens :(

3:31 pm

kje

bye dorens...

3:31 pm

Dorens

no peri, we're not hitting him in the head. we are ripping it off!!! (and you are right kj, he was most definitely trolling.... so unlike who he appears to be, too)

3:32 pm

periwinkle

ok, I will help to rip his head off then :)

3:32 pm

4:33 pm

I asked him to come over here for a while to chill out.... though I have never met him, I just feel like he could do with a bit of mothering (or mammying, as we say here). I have a son the same age as him, and I would hate for him to be on his own at a time like this....

any clues for the yt words?

5:21 pm

Mom

5:22 pm

lynxxx

Also it is quite common to have a word not accepted and get "not found in dictionary" message - I had that 3 times once before it accepted the word. I find I do not check that the word has been accepted especially when I am just starting and entering quickly

5:22 pm

m9f9l

mom... think chemistry. double the second letter

5:22 pm

lynxxx

6:03 pm

Minveryork

6:07 pm

JenMO16

6:08 pm

m9f9l

Jen this has nothing to do with the huge rodent of our earlier discussions today! LOL

6:08 pm

Nancy Boy

too bad gravy isn't in the grid.. I am hungry

6:30 pm

welki

welkipoll: Do you make your own waffles? Would you recommend a certain waffle iron/maker?

6:30 pm

welki

gravy is my husband's license plate ... when you get past all the superficial crap, the rest is GRAVY

6:30 pm

rururocks

I have a cuisinart waffle maker.. terrific

6:30 pm

JenMO16

potatoes isn't in the grid either!

6:31 pm

welki

which one, ru? the circle one?

6:31 pm

welki

or the 6 rectangle one?

6:31 pm

rururocks

no.. the two square one

6:32 pm

welki

my daughter has this terrific recipe for waffles (using yeast) all i need is the iron

6:32 pm

m9f9l

i prefer square waffles.

6:32 pm

m9f9l

bigger the iron the better.

6:32 pm

m9f9l

but not belgium

6:32 pm

rururocks

<<< makes vanilla/waffles

6:32 pm

i agree. i wonder where my old one is ... one of the kids probably has it

6:33 pm

Nancy Boy

vegan waffles = seriously foul

6:33 pm

rururocks

ewwwwwwwwwww nb

6:34 pm

Nancy Boy

*sigh* how long should sleeping pills take to kick in? should I take more, or something?

6:34 pm

welki

her recipe has a little vanilla in it .. strange concept, letting waffle batter rise

6:34 pm

JenMO16

my mom has a waffle maker that you find in motels, the flip and cook for 45 seconds, mmmmmmm

6:34 pm

rururocks

I did buy a panini maker.. oh my gosh what a difference in building sandwiches

6:35 pm

m9f9l

NB!! cigarettes, liquid meals and now sleeping pills?

6:35 pm

6:35 pm

m9f9l

6:36 pm

Nancy Boy

I wouldn't normally, but I haven't slept in two days...going crazy

6:36 pm

m9f9l

6:36 pm

welki

i use a sandwich iron when camping, ru ... the original panini maker! cast iron ... heavy as hell, but makes one heckuva camp-pie, pizza or grilled cheese

6:36 pm

m9f9l

6:37 pm

6:37 pm

welki

6:38 pm

welki

peril of the over-active imagination, nb. you need to visualize something else ... anything else.

6:39 pm

m9f9l

ah.. circular thoughts... hate that!

6:39 pm

Nancy Boy

If I could do that I wouldn't still be awake at twenty to one in the morning ;)

6:39 pm

welki

ru, you'd love them ... butter a couple of slices of very fresh white bread (yes, white bread) .. put a dollop of pie filling on one slice, make a sandwich, stick it in the iron and when browned and crisp, sprinkle with vanilla-sugar

6:39 pm

m9f9l

I think there is a website to help go to sleep...

6:40 pm

rururocks

yum

6:40 pm

welki

6:42 pm

back to waffle irons .. i made the mistake of walking into a williams sonoma to look for one ... found a beautiful $700 soup pot and a $300 waffle iron ... i could fly to belgium!

6:42 pm

welki

no ru, do tell

6:42 pm

welki

<-- may have to stick to her $10. pie iron

6:43 pm

Nancy Boy

6:43 pm

m9f9l

6:43 pm

my honey says we'll take'em any way we get'em. Notice he assumed the error was in USA favor..?

7:40 pm

kje

it was

7:40 pm

kje

the goalie knocked the ball into his own goal

7:40 pm

LeslieAnn

7:43 pm

kje

sh 6/33?

7:43 pm

wht

The goalie didn't exactly knock the ball into the goal. The shot was right at him and it hit his hands and then kind of dribbled over the goal line while the goalie tried in vain to crawl after it.

7:43 pm

kje

yes, i suspect it is common... and goalie has to try to get it out of his area... so bound to happen some

7:44 pm

Minveryork

sh 6/33 rhymes with three st***** and you're out kje.

7:44 pm

7:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

i thought of you immeditaely when i saw the rogue racoon footage

7:54 pm

kje

LOL - yep - that was funny

7:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

you could day that ;)

7:54 pm

kje

the prob is they are extremely cute

7:54 pm

kje

at least in appearance... they can actually be pretty vicious and most carry horrid diseases

7:54 pm

72 Temple Owl

no not cute. that is ablut all i need to add to the mangeries currently in and about my yard

7:55 pm

kje

makes it hard to hate my unwanted housemate

7:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

or the menagerie even

7:55 pm

kje

that face in that clip was pretty cute!

7:55 pm

kje

the body and the way they move kinda creeps me out though - LOL

7:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

i can't beleive you haven't had him evicted

7:55 pm

kje

def walks like a rodent

7:55 pm

kje

might as well be a giant rat

7:56 pm

72 Temple Owl

god forbid it bites you

7:56 pm

kje

easier said than done, TO... the policy here is that you must fix the house and shut them out... the will not trap or move them... but no one can figure out how they are getting in

7:57 pm

m9f9l

we had them in our walls in Cincy

7:57 pm

kje

nah - he is only in the attic... no way to get down here... at least until he gets so large he falls through the ceiling... i swear it is like listening to a 200 lb man walk up there

7:57 pm

72 Temple Owl

you cannot have them trapeed? one would think helath dept would want them right out

7:57 pm

kje

yes, it is getting in from below and getting up the walls somehow, but i only hear it once he is upstairs

7:57 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh heck i cannot type.

7:58 pm

kje

the health dept wants them out, but humanely

7:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

we have rabies here so folks are paranoid.

7:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

well trapping is humane - problem is where to put them

7:59 pm

kje

moving them is not - over 90% of animals that are removed from the area will die within weeks in a new location

7:59 pm

kje

so they say, fix your house and they will tsay out, and coexist

8:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

all well and good but you cannot wall them up in there

8:00 pm

kje

if you trap and release in same area, they just come back in, they are not stupid, so you are forced to release minimum of 5 miles away...

8:00 pm

m9f9l

I found a blog somewhere once about a guy's struggle with racoons...

8:00 pm

lbdawger

raccoons are pretty hearty critters. i'd call a wildlife remover and have roomy removed!

8:00 pm

72 Temple Owl

rabies shots are extremely painful

8:01 pm

kje

I have looked into this... they will come and remove it and are required to release in same area, so unless you can figure out and repair how it is getting in, it is pointless

8:01 pm

72 Temple Owl

is this a condo?

8:01 pm

kje

to get rabies you must get bit... it isn't as if they are chasing me down

8:01 pm

I was not much of a ta6/30 on Babble today.I did not ta4/8 much in the chog, but here is a story of clues. I had to ar5/10 early today since I had to goto work I wore casual at6/18 since it wasn't a school day.My school district hi4 /5d somebody to give a workshop on teaching social problems. I hope they re 5/12 him again, because he was very good.I should've cleaned the house when I got home, but I was a sh7/48 and I sh5/20 my house chores. I was a hi5/20 and went on a hi4/9 up a mountain w/my dog instead. Then I was very hot so I went swimming in a la4/8.Did not start babbling 'til it started to get da 4/9. When I saw the grid size,I asked myself do I even da4/5 start this? I la5/12 huge grids. Now it is da 6/33 and I am more ti 4/4d so I stopped at 160 words. I am going to ri 4/4 out of this seat and ta4/8 a shower. Then I am going to tr5/10 myself to ice cream for dessert. Then I am going to go watch a sa6/18 on tv.Then I am going to goto bed early for my own sa 4/8. I have to re 6/18 early again tomorrow since I have a lot to do. I have to go food shopping&I have to check out the sa4/4s for the week. By the way my story today is a tr 4/5 story. Goodnight to my fellow babblers! See you later

well, I think since 1990, I've had maybe 5 or 6 computers, all Macs, and only 2 of them were new. None of them had problems til the last 2; I just wanted something newer and faster. The last 2 had problems of DH watering the motherboard (missed the plants); and then the last one overheated from too much fur in the front airvents (who knew there were airvents in that particular place?

Hi Jellen. I'm falling asleep here; thinking I should be in bed already :-/

11:38 pm

11:39 pm

Nef

(((Jellen)) How is Tim today?

11:39 pm

Jellen

He's okay...

11:40 pm

Jellen

We'd both feel a lot better if we had an appointment with his doc scheduled already...

11:41 pm

Nef

how are you guys doing emotionally? Wow; that IS hard!

11:42 pm

Jellen

I think we're both struggling...the standard pronosis is not good...6 to 9 months

11:43 pm

Nef

I know. :-( I'm praying for you. Melanoma is such a sneaky nasty cancer

11:51 pm

Nef

I had a small black spot on my lower leg that I'd ignored for over a year and had taken DH in to see a dermatologist for some spots on the top edges of his ears. Sure enough, he had the beginnings of skin cancer from the sun. But while we were waiting, I read a pamphlet in the office which I just asked the doctor what to worry about. Then I made an appt. for the little black dot; ended up with it being biopsied and then got called back again for a big chunk being taken out of my shin. It was a type of mole (some sort of a nevi) that changes into melanoma and was through all the skin thicknesses. And here I'd thought it was just a small black dot!

11:52 pm

Nef

It just surprised me how tiny it was but how it was already trying to dig in and cause problems!

11:52 pm

Jellen

Yes, it's pretty scary...

11:54 pm

Nef

if it wouldn't have been for DH's visit; I would have never thought about it. The key is it was the only black freckle or mole I had and it wasthere for just a year

11:58 pm

Jellen

I'm not that aware, I think...
